Day at the Beach

Day at the Beach-1-1, originally uploaded by jjvannorman.

Labor Day seems to have always been a day that was bitter sweet for me.

When I was younger it signaled to me the end of summer and the beginning of school year. Of course the anticipation was always worse than the reality. School was never really that bad and to be honest it served me well.

With the end of summer, Autumn is here which has been my favorite season at least when I got older and something I really adore about Chicago. The metaphors are apparent and are aching to be written in light of my current career circumstances but that's too predictable and I'll have more to say on that as that reality unfolds.

For now it's another opporunity for photography, for change and to move forward.
